Today, The Mens Room launched it's national initiative to work with Prisons across the UK to support men during incarceration and upon their release. Research shows that an ex-offender is much more likely to recommit an offence within 2 years if they do not have appropriate support immediately after leaving prison or a young offenders institution. The Mens Room has an army of men across the country, capable of helping men settle back into the community.
The programme is supported by Caring for ex-offenders - another leading UK charity.
